Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The move is poorly executed. Besides all of the easily noticeable mistakes, most obvious one is a 25+ year old looking actor playing a 16 year old girl, who not only happens to be a professional car thief but a great stuntwoman as well. Landing a plane in the middle of the highway? No problem. Jumping out of a flying plane? Piece of cake. I don't know how, but they made a 19 year old actor look like a 14 year old kid. Those age differences and misuses are very disturbing throughout the whole movie. There are plenty of erroneous stuff but let's not zoom into them at the moment, it can go unnoticed for a regular viewer.The Plot - It's predictable and ambiguous. First of all, who doesn't use proper contraceptives before a flight in the cosmos? How come the mother of the main character is pregnant and still makes it aboard? That's rubbish. Second, not only the finale is obvious, but also the main plot twist (aka who's the father of Gardner).Overall, 6/10. Not that bad, if you just wanna say "Awww cute" in the end.

Sometimes we just need some little movie to cheer us up.

A great premise with a some charming aspects of performance from Asa butterfield but otherwise a plot that needs a lot of contrived coinidences to make sense. Convenient that the kid has some sort of magnetic tracker in his chest that also happens to override the door locks, not just on mars but also in earth's nasa headquarters. Also convenient that the apparent child genius on mars turns into a mr bean socially incapable idiot on earth. And when did nasa decide that the best content of a training module on "human sexuality" should be a clip from a 1950s movie?Some entertainment and some charm but overall just too contrived to keep me on board.

A feel good movie set in a future not entirely unimaginable. A unique plot with a good cast.
